I had mounted the silver prints on double weight black chip board and 
the black surface of the board kept fading. I found I could freshen 
up the black board by using the Krylon but to keep it even I had to 
spray everything including the prints. They were on Agfa with a pearl 
finish so it wasn't noticable.

Strange but true.
